I think the ZC is a 1.7, cuz the DA GSR is a 1.7

The ones I found on the net had them listed as 1.6. Doesn't mean the shop selling it couldn't have been wrong, but that's the spec they listed. I just did a google search and started picking links.

But people want it because it's "JDM". PT Barnum underestimated how often suckers are born.

So the lesson is "Don't buy it just because it's JDM, make sure it's actually the best choice."

Exactly. There are people paying way out of the ass for JDM Type R motors and Gsr motors because they make more horsepower, but dont realize that they make more horsepower because of the Ecu tuning, and end up buying Hondata anyways. Waste of a shitload of money.

I was looking at JDM engines for my MR2 because they actually have different parts (like the nice five valve per cylinder 4age), but decided not to because of the price difference.
